I can believe that! I was there and almost got ran over by people entering the doors. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to be on the floor so i was in the nose bleed section. But Al was great and it was fun anyway. He did a new polka that I haven't heard and a lot of older songs which were great.

If you taped it you should put it up on youtube. But don't post that you did

The show in Redmond, OR was spectacular--I have never been to an Al concert with that many people! (no reserved seats....). He had a large stage to work from, so he was really able to move around quite a bit. I also liked that Bermuda was up high in sight, rather than low on the floor--he was awesome! Al really delighted me when he walked through a sea of people during WBUL.....no isles-the place was packed. From my vantage point--it was fun to watch. I do wish I had been up close for the polka medley-but maybe another time. He sang 'Good Old Days'--never heard this at a concert before. I have posted some pictures on Twitpic from this concert under my nickname, 'spunkyandy'. Aside of trying to get in without being trampled, it was a great show. Hope he tours in 2011!!! ~Andrea B.~
